Swap is redundant. Especially if the goal was to put the S65 into a lighter chassis. The E9x M3 is only about 200-300lbs heavier than the E46 M3. That amount of weight is removable on the E9x M3 without stripping it down to a bare bones. What makes the swap even more redundant is that swapping the motors apparently messed with the steering on the E46.
So basically, they have an E46 M3 that no longer has the original steering feel. The car gained about 100hp, but the motor is now in a car that has an even more outdated interior. All for the price of an: E46 M3, S65 engine, and an additional 50k for the next buyer. And the wait time would only be about 6-8 months.
Damn, that's a good deal.
